1. K & R - Yeay Max!
alJazeera will be in trouble again for the word "Fatwa", but I am sure even they think it is worth it - that was classic TV :)

4. Oh, c'mon Max. Explain yourself a little better.
I could use less invective (even though I suspect it is richly deserved) and more information.

Don't assume I know these guys criminals. What makes them criminals? Why do you call them counterfeiters?

Don't assume I know these bonds are worthless. What makes them worthless? What would make them worth something?

I'm not calling you out or questioning you facts. I'd just like some background so that next time I'll understand what makes you talk about the situation in such harsh terms.

Thank you.

6. check out his youtube channel
He has been explaining it in great detail for over a year now, even the oil bit he mentioned in passing had a full hours coverage - his facts are very nicely explained with full background facts from the original people who tried to warn the world, but he has never had an outburst that before, Good for him ;)

8. Thanks
I just watch a couple of hours of those.

By the way, it was not Dick Cheney who said the American way of life is non-negotiable (although I think he believes it); it was Bush the Preppy.

5. Max, I understand why you had to get loud and forceful
after being right about so many predictions you made for the last 2 years and not being heard.

Can you clarify two points you've made here?

Are you saying that billions of worthless CDS (credit default swaps) with no collateral behind them needed to be paid off, so everybody dumped their oil stocks to pay for them, which caused oil prices to drop?

And in what way exactly are emerging markets suffering because of that?

Thanks!

11. Yes, that Michael Lewis article is a vivid piece and a must-read.
Still would be interested in a more detailed explanation of what Max had in mind there, though.

7. Max Keiser, nice and yeasty and he is absolutely correct, Paulson,
...Goldman Sacs, Bush and all his cronies, Greenspan all have committed fraud and should be indicted and prosecuted on counterfeiting.

9. Well said, Max
This is indeed financial terrorism on a MASSIVE scale.

13. The righteus anger was called for but the fatwa thing was over the top.>

Certainly someone should be held to account but just not comfortable how he phrased it.

17. He may have a point but the fact he used "fatwa" and "infidel" "head rolling down stairs"
to describe these guys won't help spread the message. On the contrary, his unfortunate terminology will be used by his opponents to dismiss his argument.

As they say, It's all in the delivery.
